Chemical Analysis Of Lead In Eye Cosmetics And In Scalp Hair Samples
(Department of Chemistry, 1989)The use of lead sulphide as a traditional eye medicine and/or cosmetic is widespread in some areas of Kenya. Quantitative analyses using flame atomic • absorption spectroscopy showed high lead concentrations in most ... -
Immunity to Schistosomiasis: Role of Eosinophils in parasite killing and in tissue injury
(University of NairobiSchool of Biological Sciences, 1999)Eosinophilia is associated with helminth infections and or allergic conditions. However, the precise role of this cell • has, until recently, been speculative. There is accumulating evidence to suggest that eosinophils ... -

Application Of The Portfolio Theorem In The Study Of How An Investor Can Exploit Interrelationships Between Projects To Adjust To The Risk-Return Characteristics
(University of NairobiSchool of mathematics,, 2005)In many scenarios, investment decisions turns out to be far riskier than originally envisaged. largenumber of projects flop because managers have no idea before hand. Investmentdecision-making literally means stepping ... -
A Study To Identify The Presence Of IL-10 And IFN-y In Leukocytes During Theileria Parva Infection In Cattle
(University of NairobiSchool of Biological Sciences,, 1996)The gene expression of two immunoregulatory cytokines, IL-10 and IFN-y, during infection of bovine leukocytes with T. parva was investigated at the single cell level. Initial results obtained from in vitro studies with ... -

Maximal numerical range of Operators in hilbert spaces
(School of Mathematics, University of Nairobi, 1998)The maximal numerical range of a linear operator T, on a Hilbert space H, denoted by Wo(T), is a subset of the complex field C. It is a relatively new concept in ..operator theory, having been introduced only in 1970 ... -
Futher investigations of group screening designs; step-wise designs
(University of NairobiSchool of mathematics, 1985)The inspection of individual members of a large population is an expensive and tedious process. Often when testing the results of manufacture, th2 work can be reduced greatly by examining only a sample of the ... -
